This is a good book for Delphi programmer but I think the writer should pay more attention on COm+ section. I have tried to follow the instruction about creating new COM+ with Delphi but it was not work because of some missed data. I think the infosrmation is not in detail enough. I suggest to decrease some section about Pascal Language and add more information about working with new technology with Delphi.
